Autumn
has descended upon us and I'm truly enjoying dressing up for the slightly
colder weather. The slight nip in the air gives us the liberty to play with the
spring summer pieces in our wardrobe and layer them with warmer items so as to
create outfits that would not only look beautiful, but also keep us cozy.

So
I came up with 3 different outfits which are perfect for this time of the year.
I have mainly used clothes from my Spring-Summer wardrobe, but I have layered
them in a way so that they are wearable in Autumn.

Watch
the video and do let me know which outfit was your favourite. All the outfit
details are in the description box of the video. :)

If
you ask me I'm not someone who is super-trendy, and I am especially not the
first one to jump on to new trends.

However,
if I like a particular fashion trend, the first thing I try to do is look in to
my ever-expanding wardrobe to see if I have any item to create the so-called
trendy look, without having to spend any real money on the same. And this is
what happened when I wanted to try out the oh-so-popular trend of wearing
longer shirts over tops/tees and jeans. Now dusters are also a rage currently,
and I do have a bohemian floor length kaftan/kimono style duster, but I was
more interested in the mid-length shirt/buttoned tunic sort of a look. So after
rummaging through my closet, I came across this striped dress, which can actually
be worn multiple ways, thanks to the buttoned front. So after pulling this
little number out of my closet I quickly picked out one of my favourite (and
also fairly old) blue/white tops. I paired my blue skinny jeans with the top
and the tunic/dress and voila...I created an outfit that was/is trendy without spending
even a penny. So I encourage you guys to go through your existing clothes in
order to recreate a trend without blindly heading to the shops to buy those
"trendy" pieces.

Celebrity
street style serves as a major source of fashion inspiration for me, and TBH, I
can spend hours looking at outfit photos of my favourite celebrities, and more
often than not, the thought that comes to my mind is that I could put similar, if not same, outfits together.

So
working on this very thought, I recreated 3 looks inspired by Miranda Kerr's
street style. She has got a stunning sense of style and I've never come across
a photo of hers where she looks anything less than gorgeous!

Please
watch the video to see the looks that I came up with, and please leave a
comment stating which look was your favourite.

Stripes
are a classic in their own right and I really feel that one can't have enough
stripe-y items in their wardrobe. At least I feel that whenever I shop, I
subconsciously gravitate towards stripes- and that's the reason I bought two
striped maxi dresses (and a lot more) from the recent online Koovs Sale. I've
also included a beautiful white cape that I bought from Zara fairly recently.

The
one in the first photo is pretty much a classic black-white striped maxi, but the
bohemian maxi (photo 2) is the one which is my absolute favourite, and that's
because I'm not the only one who loves this colourful number, it seems Kareena
Kapoor and I have similar taste when it comes to 'fashion'. She was spotted
wearing the same maxi on Saif's birthday. And wait for it, just when you
thought Kareena and I had only this maxi dress in common, there's another maxi
that we both own, but to know which maxi is that you'll have watch the video. ;)

BTW,
I also picked up a few kimonos which I'm sure all you kimono fans would love.

I
don't know why I didn't share this sooner on my blog, but they say better late
than never- right? So today I'm going to profess my love for the "denim
vest". Now don't get me wrong, I haven't always had a thing for denim
vests, in fact to be honest, I only have one denim vest in my wardrobe and
that's also a fairly recent addition- but boy do I love the versatility of this
piece.

I
bought my denim dress fromhere, and ever since I bought it, I have worn it once
every week if not everyday. From teaming it up with maxi dresses to sporting it
over a pair of jeans, this little piece of clothing has been worn multiple
ways.

Have
a look at this video to see how I wore my denim vest with five different
outfits. Please let me know which outfit did you like the best. :)
